How many days had gone by since she had seen another adult? She wondered. The dredge and the humdrum were now drowning into a routine that she could not shake off. She drank the old room around her, not bohemium or minimalistic or too fancy. It was a standard room as any room can be.  A large diwan in the centre, a cupboard and a common bedstand. Nothing too fancy. Nothing too cheap. Just enough.  But now this room looked enough and dreadful for her. She wanted to spread her wings, and she wanted to fly.

If Voldemort never knew about the potter boy, we would be saved seven horrible movies. But the thing about prophecies is that they exist. Over the period of time, I have come to believe that someone somewhere is jotting down prophecies about me in an language illegible by human.
